The dispatches say that Judge De-
Wolf, of Butte, is to be assigned
to the Butte district. This is hard
ly probable. 1t is a ~well-known
fact that the latest appointee must take
the outlying circuit, known as the "cow-
countless" now presided over by Judge
Bach. 1t is more than probable that
Judge McLeary will go to the Butte dis
trict, Judge Bach come to this district,
and Judge DeWolf be assigned to the
Miles City district. The matter will be
decided at the meeting of the Supreme
court next week. 1t is understood that
Judge McLcary will conclude to remain
in Montana if he is assigned to a dis
trict more to his liking.

and speculation in products abates. So
1t seems that congress cuts more of a
figure in the business industries ofthe
country than that honorable body has
been credited with heretofore. This
tends TO establish the theory that there
is an inclination to disturb the business
pulse of the nation by legislation. 1t is
to be hoped that at this session of ron.

will be satisfactorily solved and that the
best possible disposition of the surplus

following story Of an English naval of.
ficer, Captain Hawser, of the Vesuvius.
Hawser was a tremendous fellow for
grog. When they arrived in the West
Indies, this indulgence brought on a fever,
and Hawscr only just escaped with his
life. The doctor totally inhibited the
use of rum and brandy, but told him
when he found himself in q cold climate
he might take them moderately. Shortly
after they returned to England the
Vesuvius was ordered to the Baltic, and
Hawser resumed the grog, so long dis
continued. He daily asked to have it
increased in strength as they proceeded
on their way, and by the time they
reached the Baltic it was considerably
more than half and half. The further
he sailed the stronger it became, until at
last there was but scarcely any water in
the composition. The invariable order
given to the steward was "further

CALIFORNIA GIRLS LinEL.D.

This is the way in which the New
York World talks about California girls;
The California girl of the average type
is not pretty. The main difficulty with
which the women of the Pacific Slope
must contend is the seeming i~mpossibility
of bringing out or preserving a good
complexion. The fierce winds which
blow from the Pacific or from the mount.
aims, combined with a naturally dry at
mosphere, are enough to ruin the best OF
compilations in a short time. For this
reason the California girl resorts to the
use of paints and powders. If she can't
produce a good complexion by natural
means, she will by artificial aids. Stroll
down Market or Montgomery streets any
afternoon and you will observe that eight
out of every ten women you meet have
painted cheeks. A popular druggist said
that he had 10 different preparations
for the face in stock in his store.
But although a California girls face
may be plain, her figure is divine. No
matter where you go you will always
find women with beautiful forms. One
would think that the State would become
a refuge for women who complain of be-
ing scrawny and angular. A two.years'
residence there makes a marvellous change
in the outlines of a figure. California
girls are even more vivacious than those
of Chicago. They are witty, quick at
rapartee and fond Of adventure. Merry
hearted and jolly, they are never vulgar.
They use good, vigorous English and are
not averse to slang. There is a frank.
ness Of manner about some OF them
which would shock some Of their Eastern
sisters.
The California girls feet are shaped
like a chemists spatula, very long and
very narrow. Eastern people are apt to
laugh outright when they see those
queer.shaped boots for the first time. A
long, slim foot cannot. by any standard,
be considered beautiful. 1t does not
look as though it was made for use or for
ornament. 1t is disappointing. The
head of a family soberly said that his
children, born in Maine had Maine feet,
broad and ample, while those born in
San Francisco had the genuine California
foot, long and narrow. Would it not be
a good plan for some scientist to study
into this matter and determine why this
is so?

Jay Gould was asked if much of the

which he replied: 1.-THE proportion is

We are so rich, and have money ~ ex.
cess to that degree that our railroads
furnish the most tempting investment.
1t may be said that, with a very few ex.
ceptions. our whole railroad system is
